Please plan on attending this interactive web-event as Roberto Kompany, Senior Analyst at Analysys Mason, Xanthos Angelides, Product Line Manager of RAN solutions at EXFO, and Ken Gold, Director of Test, Monitoring and Analytics at EXFO, discuss key lessons learned in 5G NSA rollouts, and what this means for 5G SA.
According to a July 2020 GSA report, the number of commercially launched 5G networks is now approaching 100—but perhaps more interestingly, MNOs around the world are now shifting their rollout plans towards 5G standalone (SA). At the same time, MNOs have discovered that building and operating 5G networks is significantly more challenging than 4G. Beyond just tighter specifications, MNOs are finding the increased network complexity, RAN evolution, spectrum availability, and the shift towards cloud-native means operations teams and their legacy systems are reaching their limit.
This interactive panel event will focus on:
• Key challenges and lessons learned from early 5G deployments,
• Interactive audience surveys to augment panelists insights, and
• Lively discussions on lessons learned and audience feedback
